The main focus of the project is to connect Nathan Hill’s novel, Wellness, which explores health and research, with the course material, by applying your knowledge of epidemiology. Final papers must be tailored for readers unfamiliar with the book; they should contain an overview of the novel that supports your argument, demonstrating an in-depth understanding of the narrative. Your essay must include at least three (3) quotes from the book and five (5) scientific references. Essays should have a minimum length of 2000 words and be submitted in a standard 12-point font, double-spaced. This formatting typically results in approximately 7-10 pages. All essays must adhere to APA 7 formatting guidelines and include a references page. Select a topic from the provided list, or, if you prefer an alternative topic that meets the objectives above, you may propose it to the instructor and proceed with it upon receiving approval.
